Adam, I presume you have run the migration that is generated by delayed_job. You also have the initializer file.
Earlier would you start the long running as Download.new.start ? If so, Download.new.send_later(:start) would definitely work. If 'start' is an instance method in the Download model, it will work. If 'start' is a class method, you cannot (obviously) do a Download.new.start -- then you can enqueue the task. Send some more details - and I can help you sort this out. - Gautam @gautamrege On Wed, Nov 10, 2010 at 11:07 PM, Adam <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm currently trying to set up the delayed job solution, running into > some problems > but if I get it to work I think it will do the job, the importing will > be done about once a day. > > Since I'm on the topic I've tried to do the railscast setup from > delayed job but both of the versions showed there dont do it for me > the first one with the send_later method > Download.new.send_later(:start), shows "undefined method `perform' for > #<YAML::Object: ..." > I load the config in environment.rb file (raw_config = > File.read(RAILS_ROOT + "/config/config.yml") > APP_CONFIG = YAML.load(raw_config)[RAILS_ENV]) > > the second option using a new class after jobs:work > > "Job failed to load: Unknown handler.
